Swear from some of the bollocks I've read on the internet about his return that some people would concede to losing on Saturday if they were guaranteed a selfie and a backslap from Chris Powell.
I think a back slap would be the least they'd hope for
The first England /Charlton international in my lifetime a huge part of our Premiership success a true gent no matter what your opinion of him as a manager the above makes him a true Charlton Legend as far as I am concerned and i will be a bit emotional on Saturday for the return of a class act who i'd love to be in our dugout but times change and managers move on but my memories produced by him will be in my heart forever I love you SCP
Should I work on the principal that you are a grown adult with a life beyond your undoubtedly well worn seat at The Valley ?
I have no life except for stalking SCP threads and being a complete bell when i see his name
Applauding Powell during the game ... hero worship gone too far, Pre match he deserves applause, but during the game he is the opposition manager. He won't get pelters during the match but he should not get applause.
He deserves exactly what Curbs got a - big defeat and I am hoping for.
If Curbs reads this mate he won't be happy you two timing him .
Nor would he be happy with my poor original diction - well praps he won't.
Actually I misquoted there oops! Note to self 'don't be so trigger happy'. It was meant for @oohaahmortimer but if you felt the cap fitted

But OOhaah, does that extend to applauding him DURING the game or even wanting him to win?
The man epitomised what a true Charlton player should be for well over 200 games as a player for us. He loves this club. Why else fo you think he kept coming back? A great player who always gave everything. For that alone he deserves a welcome.

if Hudders are 4-0 down i'd applaud him during the game and i do want him to win but NEVER against us (unless by us losing to them it could send millwall down)

I love you SCP
seriously?
yep seriously a different type of love that you have for family but a sort of love you have for football things
I will give him a big round of applause when he emerges from the tunnel and probably again at the end. Beyond that I will make myself ignore him, because to see him standing, calm and dignified, while Luzon goes through his full array of demented chimp impressions would be too painful to take.

Nothing wrong with a bit of emotion! Its what makes football so great!
Think everybody has missed the point here. On Saturday a true ex player and hero of charlton returns with his current club. I for one will be applauding for a minute to support him. I hope you all join me in welcoming back mark Hudson and give him the tribute he deserves. Thanks for everything mark, from all at charlton!
I'm with oohaah. A couple of years ago, I saw Chrissy on Sidcup High Street. I let out, a really loud, involuntary, "Chrissy Powell." He laughed, shook my hand and carried on, on his way. I too love Chrissy Powell.
What price Chris Powell swinging on crossbar at Jimmy Seed end ? What price Guy Luzon doing Tunnel Jump ? What price CAFC fans start slapping each other over this ?

Tbh I think if Arsenal fans sore Thiery Henry walking down the street they would do the same! Why shouldn't we do that to our heroes? Football is football but sometimes we should not be blinded by competitiveness and learn to have a good time and show appreciation too. What was it we used to say? Charlton's more than just a club.
When we've stopped cheering Chrissy, I know he's injured but will you join with me in starting up a 'Johhny Jackson runs down the wing for me' rendition Col?...................I'll take that as a NO as well then.

I won't doff my cap to anyone other than current players or head coach.
(keep playing entertaining football Guy, then we will respect you soon enough)
Chris Powell is a good Man But from 3 to 5 on Saturday he's in the away dugout so don't forget that.
100% support for the reds.
seriously?
Nothing more nothing less. Don't kid yourselves here.
He's a charlton legend but this is football.

The bloke is an out and out, Charlton legend.
If you can't see that, or embarrassed by that, then I genuinely feel sorry for you.
Thanks for everything mark, from all at charlton!

If we win do you think he will do the tunnel jump for old times sake.
